Enables connection of MPEG-2 video formats. Enables connection of MPEG-2 MXF interop video formats. Enables connection of SMPTE-compatible 2D and 3D video formats Contact Christie Technical Support to learn which S2 and S4 IMB devices are compatible with Christie projectors. Series 2 IMB video formats S2 IMB video format support is determined by the IMB make and model.
The input configurations supported are determined by the IMB device directly. IMB devices supporting HDMI selection from the projector UI Contact Christie Technical Support to learn which IMB devices provide HDMI source selection from the projector UI. HDMI input selection directly from the IMB may also be possible via the IMB UI. The input configurations supported are determined by the IMB make and model.
The following describes only those parameters associated with input signal selection that should be configured by the user. Additional parameter settings are required to fully describe a channel setup. Refer to CineLife+ RGB PLF User Guide (P/N: 020-103073-XX) for further information.
For Red, Green, and Blue power levels, system stability may be affected if levels are set below the minimum (MIN) power limit shown. To ensure color and brightness are held at the required levels for your installation, Christie recommends that you enable LiteLOC for each laser file you create.

System stability may be affected if you set a power level below the minimum power level recommended. When setting the Red or Green power level, Christie recommends setting a level below the maximum (MAX) limit shown. A value below the maximum limit ensures an optimal brightness that can be maintained over time.
Learn how to adjust image geometry so it displays correctly. Calibrating the Intelligent Lens System On CineLife+ RGB PLF projectors, the Intelligent Lens System (ILS) is activated by default. Use the Auto Calibrate feature of the ILS to find and compensate for motor backlash, and to determine the movement range for the currently installed lens.
Extreme misalignment of projection optics can cause permanent damage to critical optical components. Only Christie qualified technicians can perform internal optical adjustments. The integrator rod and fold mirror adjustments are set by Christie. Make adjustments only if screen shadows are visible.
Caution! If not avoided, the following could result in minor or moderate injury. • This procedure must be performed by Christie qualified technicians.
